Australian soldiers playing cards, Darwin
Description
Three Australian soldiers playing cards, Robertson Barracks, Darwin. 'Robertson Barracks is a large army base near Darwin. It is quite spread out and very comfortable, though hot and humid. At the time I was there enormous numbers of soldiers were being moved back and forth to East Timor.' Wendy Sharpe, 29 May 2000.
